Big Dialer

The Big Dialer iPhone application was designed to help people with vision problems and/or shaky hands make dialing numbers on their phones easier – especially for seniors. The very large buttons are color coded to be highly visible, and the application can announce the numbers as you press them. You can select from one of three color schemes for the buttons.

If you press your finger on the phone number, the phone will announce back the numbers you’ve entered. If you shake the phone, it will clear out the numbers you’ve entered so you can start over.

It gives you access to your phone’s contacts and can tell you the name of the contact you’ve selected.

After you enter the number, press the call button at the bottom (the person's head) to make the call. The iPhone will require you to verify you want to make a call.

If your hands are a little shaky and you enable the feature to resist double pressing, the application will prevent more than one button getting pressed per second.

A simple app with easy controls and few options. I suggest that you place the application icon in one of the corners of your main screen, or down along the bottom of the iPhone screen in the application tray so it is easy to find.
